Over on Emmerdale, Eric Pollard's temper will get the better of him once again when he trashes his son David's shop.

David is preparing to relaunch the business having regained ownership, but Eric's ongoing anger problems look set to ruin the big occasion.

Although David comes up with the kind gesture of donating a percentage of the shop's profits to Val's charity, Eric (Chris Chittell) is unhappy about the idea as he continues to push his family away.

A furious Pollard gets into the shop with a hammer

With David preparing to open the shop, he starts to doubt whether Eric will even turn up to cut the ribbon as planned. Later, it seems David's worries could be justified when an incredulous Eric learns that Lawrence White has just confessed to shooting Robert Sugden following a shock attempt on the villain's life.

Lawrence has confessed to the crime in a bid to protect his daughter Chrissie, but his bold move infuriates Eric who has already vengefully given a false statement to the police to implicate her.

Arriving at David's shop in a rage, a furious Eric tries to get in but discovers it's locked. Not willing to give up there, Eric proceeds to make his feelings about the tribute to Val clear as he gets a sledgehammer and starts to trash the shop. Will this be the final straw for David?

Thanks for these.

I don't understand why ITV haven't released spoilers for that week anyway, you get all the other soaps but this one, it's annoying.

Not that i imagine that they'll be anything Ross related mentioned anyway, since he's "left the village" the previous Friday. The whole thing with him leaving at certain intervals has become tiresome anyway, they seem to like winding the viewers up, toying with us the fact he won't come back. We know he's capeable of disappearing acts cause he disappeared from his family for years. They know now that viewers won't stand for him leaving anyway, so i wish they'd stop all that. Be interesting to see what happens with Ross and Debbie when Charley Webb goes off on maternity, cause if she doesn't do what Emma Atkins was doing and pop back intermittently then she'll be taking a full year i guess and coming back fresh in late 2016, i assume they're not going to kick Michael Parr out for a year and bring him back to suit the way they have to take the storyline. I guess Charley became pregnant at an inconvenient time in story planning stages

There is a lot of secrecy right now surrounding future Emmerdale episodes and storylines and very limited available spoilers.

The 3-liner daily ITV spoilers for Emmerdale episodes shown on TV for 28/09/15-2/10/15 are not due for public release until 22/09/15.

The full usual digitalspy weekly spoilers are also not due until 22/09/15.

I really don't think that Ross is going away for too long. He did mention in his twitter acount that he is due to go away around now. I think he tweeted about going to somewhere in the Mediterranean but I can't find the tweet right now (I think he may have deleted this?). I'm fairly sure he'll turn up again on Emmerdale on our screens soon though.

[Telly Watcher]

Lawrence has confessed to the crime in a bid to protect his daughter Chrissie, but his bold move infuriates Eric who has already vengefully given a false statement to the police to implicate her.

I think right now that Lachlan pulled the trigger on Ross' ex-gun and that Lawrence just plays an old fool in wasting police time by 'confessing' that it was him. I suspect that Lawrence's reason for doing this is to protect Chrissie from any blame for the behaviours of herself, her wayward husband (Robert) and her strange son (Lachlan).

As for Eric's recent behaviour, I reckon he's just lost the plot and is completely in denial that he caused Val's death himself by locking her and Diane in the mirror maze. I think Eric really needs counselling or other medical help for his latest views on everything.

Found these spoilers


Monday 28th Sep

Suspicions are raised following the shooting. Marlon is puzzled over Paddy’s lies. Kirin and Belle want to take things further.

Tuesday 29th Sep - Hour long episode.

Suspects continue to emerge. Joanie is given a wake-up call. Kirin and Belle reach the next level.

Wednesday 30 Sep

Andy and Aaron struggle over the shooting. Kirin is unnerved by Belle’s strong feelings. Pollard gets his revenge.

Thursday 1st Oct - Hour long episode.

Lawrence takes matters into his own hands. Cain grows conflicted over Kyle. Sam struggles as Megan prepares to move on.

Friday 2nd Oct.

Bernice is rocked by Lawrence’s decision. Will Pollard’s actions push David away for good? Kerry reveals too much to Kyle.


Not sure why spoilers are taking longer to come out. I know officially we get them on A Monday at midnight but ITV usually release their own press pack spoilers. Isn't that on a wed? Not sure if Corrie have had spoilers released or not either though?

As for Ross. He obviously wont be gone for long. They do need to leave off the will he wont he leave stuff for a bit though.

Michael is going on a break this month. As said on twitter it sounds like he is off to LA in a couple of weeks. But he also mentioned he was going to Sardinia (think it was here) in Oct. Unless his plans have changed. Actors going on holidays doesn't really need to be written on screen though. Characters can disappear for a little bit without it really being noticed. Like Cain hasn't been in it last week. and Adam was away for a bit after the summer fate stuff. And probably a lot of others recently. This break will be in a couple months though onscreen.

Him and Anthony were filming some stuff last week

David Kester ‏
Great day with these two legends @MikeParrActor @AnthonyQuinny

Michael Parr ‏
@davidkester67 @AnthonyQuinny excited to see this stuff x

Emmerdale spoilers: Will an injury lead Cain Dingle back into Kyle’s life?

Duncan Lindsay for Metro.co.uk
Monday 21 Sep 2015 11:59 pm

Cain Dingle has struggled to accept that his son Kyle is back in the village and there was a point where he wanted Joanie to pack up and leave.

However, he showed his paternal side when a helicopter crash left the lad trapped in the village hall recently. Cain opened up to Kyle about his fears as a dad before rescuing him from certain death and, since then, it has only been a matter of time before he re-entered his son’s life.

That moment finally arrives when Joanie is left fragile following a nasty accident.

When her car breaks down, she tries to ring someone for help but finds that her phone has no signal. Clambering up on a wall to try and get a better reach, she ends up taking a bad fall.

As Joanie is left injured, Kyle is left alone in the car. Luckily, Zak is driving by later and sees the car abandoned and is shocked when he finds Joanie crying out in pain.

As Zak rushes to her aid, it highlights just how fragile Joanie’s current setup is but is it enough of a wake up call to prove to her that she needs to rely on the help of others more?

In the wake of the accident, Zak tries to reawaken Cain’s interest in Kyle, but the moody mechanic is having none of it from his well meaning dad.

However, Cain later leaps to the rescue of his son when he runs in front of a car and is nearly hit.

Diving into the path of danger to defend his boy, it’s clear that Cain cares far more than he lets on. Watching the drama unfold, Moira takes Cain’s protection of his son as a good sign and tells him that she wants them to have Kyle in their lives.

While Cain appears annoyed at the constant pressure from all angles, Moira and Zak remain as determined as ever to get him to recognise him as his son.

When Kerry later accidentally tells Kyle something, will it change anything?

Emmerdale spoilers: Kirin Kotecha and Belle Dingle take the next step – but do they have a future?

Duncan Lindsay for Metro.co.uk
Monday 21 Sep 2015 11:59 pm

Kirin Kotecha and Belle Dingle decide to take their relationship to the next level in coming weeks – but as they take that big step, is there really a future for them? Or is Kirin settling for Belle because he believes there is no chance he can get back with Vanessa Woodfield?

Lisa grows worried when she sees Kirin and Belle sharing secret smiles and is concerned that things might be moving too fast. Taking her daughter aside, Lisa has some words of warning but Belle insists that the relationship is more than just a fling.

As Kirin overhears, Belle is left upset by his reaction but they later make up and end up sharing a night of passion together.

As it becomes clear that Belle has really fallen for her new love interest, Lisa enlists Debbie’s help to give Belle advice on precautions. As Debbie approaches Belle, the youngster assures her that she did use protection when she slept with Kirin.

However, when she later turns down a school trip in favour of staying to be close to Kirin, is Belle falling too fast and could she be in for some heartache?

Viewers will know that Kirin was very much in love with Vanessa and when he eventually discovers that baby Johnny is his, it will surely change absolutely everything for him.

So where will that leave Belle?

So Aaron is in possession of a gun, whereas a gun is missing at Home Farm.

So, maybe Aaron stole Chrissie's gun (#1) from Home Farm by Friday 25th, shot Robert with it, then tried to dispose of it through the scrap yard waste. Maybe Paddy knows about this, or was with Aaron during the shooting, or it was Paddy who pulled the trigger?

Why didn't Aaron just bury gun #1 in the woods?

And did Aaron commit a crime of love-turned-to-hate passion for Robert?

What about the gun (#2) that Lachlan found in the stream? And what part does Lachlan play in all of this?

So many questions needing answers!

Wracked with guilt, Aaron heads to the scrapyard to dispose of the gun.

Thursday 1st October
Chas advises a shifty-looking Aaron to tell the truth...Will he listen?


Is this a gun that Aaron has found in the hedge where Lachlan left it on Friday 25th,
or is this a gun he got from his recent (London?) holiday to deal with Robert,
or is this a gun someone (Paddy?/Andy?) gave him to dispose of?

My Top 3 list of suspects so far (in no particular order) are Aaron, Paddy and Lachlan.

[Serena Williams]

I think Paddy shoots Robert
Can I ask why you think it is Paddy? What about Chrissie most people think it is her. I think Paddy would be random. I prefer it to be Chrissie it would really mean her fake marriage with Robert is over.

Chrissie. Andy and Lachlan seem very obvious to me

Chrissie has already caused the crash

Paddy no one would suspect so would be a surprise him being capable for trying to kill someone and he would do anything for Aaron and Chas

I am not sure Paddy would go that far .. not sure he would have it in him but considering that Robert hurt him before and threatened him with harming his family ... I suppose it only takes a very brief moment http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smileys-and-emoticons/beating-and-fighting/smileys-beating-and-fighting-166975.gif (http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/)

So Aaron is in possession of a gun, whereas a gun is missing at Home Farm.

So, maybe Aaron stole Chrissie's gun (#1) from Home Farm by Friday 25th, shot Robert with it, then tried to dispose of it through the scrap yard waste. Maybe Paddy knows about this, or was with Aaron during the shooting, or it was Paddy who pulled the trigger?

Why didn't Aaron just bury gun #1 in the woods?

And did Aaron commit a crime of love-turned-to-hate passion for Robert?

What about the gun (#2) that Lachlan found in the stream? And what part does Lachlan play in all of this?

So many questions needing answers!

Ross' ex-gun which Lachlan found in the stream was taken off him by Chrissie and is the one in the safe during the Wednesday Sept 23rd episode.

Chrissie said that the only persons who (supposedly) know the safe combination were herself, Lawrence and Robert (so not Lachlan). The gun and Chrissie's bracelet are missed from the safe on Monday Sept 28th (but maybe Lawrence took them away earlier to prevent awkward questions arising during police questioning of Chrissie on Wednesday 30th?).

I suppose Lawrence could have given the gun from the safe to Andy or Aaron or Paddy to shoot Robert with by Friday 25th. Aaron could then dispose of this gun for himself or Andy/Paddy this week?

I wonder if the Ross-Pete brotherly gun story was meant to tell us something earlier about this Robert shooting storyline? If so, then it should be step-brother Andy who shoots Robert.

Nothing has been said about the gun Robert used to shoot at Aaron/Paddy in the woodland holiday cottage previously. Aaron has also recently come back from London, so maybe he got a gun from there? Perhaps it is one of these two guns which Aaron/Paddy could have used to shoot at Robert on Friday 25th?

Whatever happens, Aaron seems to end up with a 'hot' gun to dispose of this week.

[Perdita]

Rakesh and every viewer knows the combination ...:p Lachlan might too, Chrissie might not be aware :hmm:

[Telly Watcher]

Chas denies she was involved in the shooting when questioned by the police (Monday, Sept 28th). But she was the nearest to Robert when the shooting happened. The hit was right in Robert's chest so maybe we should be looking at someone being very nearby and accurate with a gun to Robert when the shooting happened. Aaron was quickly on the scene but, of course, Chas was standing right in front of Robert when he got shot. Did Chas shoot Robert after all (I doubt this right now but I'm open to any reasonable ideas) and did Aaron receive the gun, either at the scene or later from Chas? Or was Aaron nearby and shoot Robert himself?

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CPqtZx7UkAAmxm9.jpg:large

It could be a ridiculous storyline of my imagination, of course, but maybe Robert raids the Home Farm safe himself, takes the bracelet for later sale and the gun for self-protection from a hothead like Andy, wears the gun stuffed into his trouser belt next to his stomach, then accidentally shoots himself in the chest with it whilst arguing with Chas outside the pub, then Aaron finds the gun in Robert's trouser belt when he's with him after the shooting. (BUT Dan and Chas are there too as witnesses, so Aaron would really need to be a great magician to hide how he takes the gun from Robert's unconscious body laying the the street with Chas and Dan around!).

There are so many possible storylines thinkable right now with the available spoilers. Lachlan and Lawrence were also in the area at the time of the shooting.

Maybe the Aaron-shooting-Robert, love-hate scenario is just too much of an anti-gay agenda for Emmerdale storywriters to support right now?

Maybe Aaron is just a 'damage limitation expert' for disposal of the 'hot' gun used by Chas/Andy/Paddy/Aaron/throw-away Lachlan/other guy?

It also bothers me why Aaron makes such a big deal on Monday Sept 28th when Chas doesn't tell the police about the gun (that was) in Chrissie's safe. Just what is Aaron maybe trying to hide and deflect attention from? Something about Chas, himself or Paddy?

It is definitely 'open season' for the identity of Robert's shooter right now!

The evidence may have already been shown on TV but we maybe haven't realised it yet. One thing is for sure in life, what each of us does today will make tomorrow happen the way it does!

[Telly Watcher]

Another thing. Ross overhears Lawrence say, on Thursday 24th when Lawrence returns to the pub in Emmerdale from holiday with Bernice, that he has the gun Lachlan found in the village in his Home Farm safe.

Maybe Lawrence later does a deal with Ross, so that Ross is the hired hitman who shoots Robert on Friday Sept 25th in return for Ross to have his gun back from Lawrence and to have Chrissie's bracelet as reward. (Aaron still has a gun to dispose of though, so where does this come from and why is it so sensitive that Aaron is so upset about it?)

Ross tells Debbie that he is leaving Emmerdale on Friday 25th, after Robert gets shot. Just what else would a hired hitman do after a job but leave town? Is this coincidence or what?

Soap spoilers: Emmerdale anger

By Sophie Dainty and Daniel Kilkelly
Sunday, Sep 27 2015, 00:01 BST

Coming up on Emmerdale, Aaron Livesy has some harsh words for his former lover Robert Sugden as he fights for his life in hospital.

In the wake of Robert's shock shooting, tensions run higher than ever in the village with several residents doubting those closest to them.

Chas is finding the ordeal particularly hard to cope with as she is forced to relive the night's events to the police.

Chas is terrified that Aaron (Danny Miller) was responsible for the crime, having learned about his involvement in Katie's death prior to the shooting.

As a furious Aaron stands at Robert's hospital bed and whispers that he hopes he dies, it seems that Chas's fears could be justified. Was Aaron responsible for shooting him? And what will he do next?

As a furious Aaron stands at Robert's hospital bed and whispers that he hopes he dies, it seems that Chas's fears could be justified. Was Aaron responsible for shooting him? And what will he do next?

I think Aaron may be worried here that Robert might blame Chas for shooting him when he wakes up.

However, this presumably doesn't happen as there are spoiler suggestions that Robron does start up again in the not-too-distant future.

[Serena Williams]

I think right now that Lachlan pulled the trigger on Ross' ex-gun and that Lawrence just plays an old fool in wasting police time by 'confessing' that it was him. I suspect that Lawrence's reason for doing this is to protect Chrissie from any blame for the behaviours of herself, her wayward husband (Robert) and her strange son (Lachlan).

As for Eric's recent behaviour, I reckon he's just lost the plot and is completely in denial that he caused Val's death himself by locking her and Diane in the mirror maze. I think Eric really needs counselling or other medical help for his latest views on everything.

Eric is a waste of space the audience has no empathy for him. In the beginning perhaps but now no way. The writers have really dragged on this tedious Eric grief storyline. It is boring Eric not Val should have died in the summer disaster.

Emmerdale's Chrissie under pressure after Robert's shooting

By Daniel Kilkelly
Monday, Sep 28 2015, 00:00 BST

Emmerdale's Chrissie Sugden desperately tries to cover her tracks tonight (September 28) following the shock shooting of her estranged husband Robert.

As Robert continues to fight for his life in hospital, a nervous Chrissie (Louise Marwood) is well aware that her whole family will be top of the suspect list in the police's investigation.

Following tense discussions, the Whites all agree not to mention the missing gun to the police - realising that honesty definitely wouldn't be the best policy in this case.

With that sorted, Chrissie's next mission is to speak to Chas Dingle and beg her not to say anything either. Can Chas keep quiet about the angry state Chrissie was in on the day of the shooting?

[Telly Watcher]

The Friday night September 25th Emmerdale episodes didn't show any more factual details than what the spoilers said would happen but they did show the facial expressions and body language of the actors, most/all of whom were aware of the overall storyline it seems, as suggested by the earlier Danny Miller (Aaron) interview with Good Morning Britain at 07:50.

What are really missing for TV viewers right now are details of how Aaron obtains a gun to dispose of by Wednesday September 30th and whether any details are available about the fate of missing Chrissie's bracelet.

Here is a list of who is mainly involved in this storyline and why they are suspects right now for Robert being shot.

Lachlan:
Has motive for killing Robert, believing Robert killed Katie, and knows that he, Lawrence and Chrissie want Robert out of their lives.
Already made a recce/partial attempt to shoot Robert in the village previously. Also known to have practised posing with the gun at Home Farm. Visited Belle and Kirin during the afternoon, his rucksack made a heavy thud as he put it on the table there. Seen walking from the village after the shooting, took object from left trouser pocket and threw it quickly into the meadow before Lawrence's car pulls up. Was shifty and reluctant to be at the hospital with police there. Also looked guilty at Home Farm later when Lawrence says he found the safe open and the gun missing.
Problems = how could he get a gun? (Home Farm safe left open by Chrissie/Robert? Knew combination anyway?) What item did he throw into the meadow after the shooting (the gun? the bracelet? If it was the gun, had he used it?) Would he strangely just steal Chrissie's bracelet (presumably valuable) from the safe for Belle and how would he get away with giving Belle this? Is Lachlan another teen gone beyond troubled?
Appeared first in Emmerdale on 10th November 2014, so due for contract expiry and an 'easy pick' for an Emmerdale character due to leave the show.

Ross:
Has no obvious motive for killing Robert, other than for money as a possible hired gunman.
Was walking with Moses in buggy during afternoon. Left Moses with Belle and Kirin, later whereabouts unknown. Was going to meet Pete at Barton's Farm during evening for some sort of 'show-down' (killing Pete by shooting him?) but didn't show. After Robert's shooting happened, Ross showed up dressed in all-black at Debbie's house emotional and saying "something come up" and that he was leaving the village, maybe for good but he would send money back for Moses.
Problems = No alibi at time of shooting. Whereabouts unknown before shooting. He knew his gun had been placed in the Home Farm safe though by overhearing this at the pub. Did he maybe show up at Home Farm during the afternoon/evening to ask Lawrence for it and Lawrence agreed to give him it if he shot Robert for money/Chrissie's bracelet as reward? He did get Robert to open the safe for him in Nov 2014 during the raid, so he might have known the combination from that time if it hadn't been changed afterwards. Maybe Chrissie gave Ross the gun and money during the afternoon for him to shoot Robert later? Maybe Cain asked Ross to shoot Robert? Maybe Ross isn't the shooter but realises that Robert might have been shot with his ex-gun by someone else and decides to run away from Emmerdale in case he is linked to Robert's shooting?

Andy:
Has motive for killing Robert, knowing Robert killed Katie by pushing her at Wylie's Farm.
Drove off angry out of village in Land Rover during afternoon and not seen since. Phoned Diane immediately before shooting saying he was sorry and wouldn't say where he was (Nearby? Cemetary? Church? Quarry?).
Problems = No apparent alibi. How could he get a gun? (Given to him by Lawrence or Chrissie? Break-in at Home Farm? Own gun?) Was maybe unlikely to be able to talk on mobile phone if hiding in the bushes behind the pub waiting for Robert, so maybe not around the scene of the shooting?
Been in Emmerdale for about 19 years. Has recently hinted about doing something else one day during actor interview. If Andy shot Robert and Robert knows it's him, then Andy is not likely to go to the police about Katie being pushed by Robert at Wylie's Farm.

Aaron:
Has motive for killing Robert as accessory to Katie's death, relationship problems, emotional hurt from previous argument previous day.
Showed up first on the shooting scene, about 20 seconds after the shot happened. Seemed surprised/worried Chas was there. Shifty throughout post-shooting scene (may have been worried a random shooter was still around Emmerdale or that Chas would be 1st suspect for a murder enquiry though.) Didn't go to hospital to check on Robert's state. Later was anxious to keep police from questioning Chas that night. Known to be "guilty" and to have a gun to dispose of by Wed Sept 30th.
Problems = No apparent alibi at time of shooting. Left Chas in pub saying he was going to "find him" (Andy? Robert?) How could he get a gun? (From Lawrence or Chrissie? Break-in at Home Farm? Own gun (from woodland lodge?). Where did the gun he wanted to dispose of on Wed Sept 30th come from (found in bushes by Aaron later after being dropped/thrown there by shooter?)? Did Aaron disturb the shooter and find the gun before running out to Chas? Is Aaron "guilty" just because he misses Robert and wanted him dead, or is he guilty becuse he is disposing of evidence on the gun (fingerprints/DNA)? Did Robert and Aaron arrange the shooting by Aaron so as to make Andy an attempted murder suspect and the shooting went too far and serious? Do Aaron's feelings change for Robert after a week or more without him being around? Would Aaron shoot at Robert with Chas so close to Robert? (Chas had turned away and began moving away from Robert when the shot happened.) Plus, Aaron wouldn't place his mother as murder suspect in a gun shooting scene, would he?

Lawrence:
Has motive for killing Robert due to many personal and business issues.
Was with Robert at his lodgings immediately before the shooting (wedding photo of Chrissie and Robert intact on sideboard) and told by Robert about him being set up with Connor and how Robert will cause further problems to get the business and money from Lawrence. Left alone in Robert's room when Robert leaves. (Wedding photo later found smashed by Vic/Diane before Andy phones before shooting. So photo smashed by Lawrence or Andy?) Next seen near the scene after the shooting when he tried to phone Chrissie but had to leave a voice message. Picks up Lachlan walking home in lane, then goes with him to the hospital where he tells the police that missing son-in-law Andy has anger issues. Seen later at Home Farm near open safe but gun missing.
Problems = No alibi at time of shooting (inside pub bar/Robert's room?). Deliberately seems to set up Andy (smashed wedding photo, police given info at hospital).

Cain:
Has motive for killing Robert due to being asked to do this earlier by Chas and possibility of Aaron being an accessory to Katie's death.
Whereabouts during evening not known, but was not at Barton's Farm when Moira and Pete showed there expecting to find Ross waiting.
Problems = No alibi. How could he get a gun? (From Lawrence or Chrissie? Break-in at Home Farm? Own gun?).

Chrissie:
Has motive for killing Robert for lying/cheating on her and family, also Katie's death and other nasty Robert stuff.
Had gun out of safe during afternoon when Chas was there. Later seen closing safe with her handbag next to it, then goes out telling Lachlan that she won't feel bad about things again by tomorrow morning. Didn't answer phone when called by Lawrence after the shooting so he left voice message. Showed up later at hospital.
Problems = Rakesh doesn't later suggest she was with him at the time of the shooting. Claims to have alibi during evening with Eric on Wed Sept 28th, he denies this later to police, but Eric's denial seems to be out of spite over Chrissie's part starting the scrapyard fire which caused the helicopter to crash into the village hall and for damage to the mirror maze to kill Val. Did Chrissie give Ross the gun and money during the afternoon to shoot Robert later that evening, then was with Eric when the shooting happened?

Unknown assassin:
Connor's revenge on Robert using him to set-up Lawrence?

Chas:
Has motive to protect Aaron from being accomplice to Katie's death and to keep Aaron away from Robert in general.
Had previously threatened Robert that day more than once. Seems to have set-up the meeting herself between her and Robert (he received a text from someone in his room when Lawrence was there). Was apparently alone with Robert when he was shot, but was it her armed accomplice in the bushes waiting for Robert to come out to meet Chas? (Also, but unlikely, did Chas shoot Robert herself, then throw the gun into the bushes? Some while back, Robert previously set-up a hitman to shoot Chas but it didn't happen.
Problems = How did her accomplice/she get a gun (Chas took it from Home Farm when Chrissie wasn't looking?). No obvious gun on Chas when Robert was shot (gun thrown into bushes?).

Robert:
Motive to set-up own shooting so as to incriminate Andy or Lawrence.
Runs off during afternoon, apparently to look for Andy at the quarry, but did he go to Home Farm instead? During evening, came home and told someone (Vic? Diane?) on mobile phone that there was "no sign" of Andy. Also received text during evening whilst in his lodgings with Lawrence, then left saying he had to go to a meeting. Met Chas (at the back of the pub?), but was this by chance or did she set him up to meet her there? Was shot during very revealing conversation with Chas. Turned to right 5 times (towards hidden shooter) during conversation, finally turning right at the end of the conversation but looking down then. (Had Robert seen the shooter? Seemed not bothered. Did he recognise the shooter?)
Problems = Could have got gun from Home Farm safe earlier to give to accomplice to use later. Maybe the supposed set-up hit went wrong and too far and nearly killed him. Did Robert give the gun from the Home Farm safe to Aaron as some sort of twisted Robert plot to set up Andy/Lawrence/Chrissie somehow for attempted murder but maybe things went too far and Robert was almost killed off by his accomplice? Whatever happens, this Robert near-death storyline seems likely to restart the Robron affair, I reckon.

Paddy:
Has motive for killing Robert for being threatened (also Leo) by him, also protective attitude towards Aaron and Chas.
Was at singles bar (in Hotten/Robblesfield?) with Marlon, but left at the same time as Tess. Seen 2 minutes walk from home in Emmerdale village as Marlon stopped by in a taxi and police car drove past towards Emmerdale. Said he'd had to walk from town as had no money for taxi. Had missing eye glasses. Refused lift by Marlon.
Problems = Suspected romp with Tess somewhere? Refused lift with Marlon so as to keep Marlon from telling Rhona about the evening out and Tess?

Ashley:
No obvious motive for wanting Robert dead.
Arrived in village off bus during afternoon as Andy drove off angry in Land Rover. Received phone call just after from someone (Laurel? Harriet?). Re-appeared in cafe after shooting wearing fancy dress shirt/trousers as US cop.
Problems = No alibi. Possible seizure at home? Or was counselling Andy somewhere (churchyard/church?)? Or seeing Laurel?

[Telly Watcher]

1) So who killed Robert?

Maybe we are all looking in the wrong direction in trying to solve who shot Robert? The storywriters have clearly set every viewer up to be bamboozled by who was the shooter that killed Robert. Maybe we will never solve the crime by thinking in this way? Maybe we all really need to think "outside of the box"?

The way we found out that Ross wasn't dead after Pete left him in the woods was by finding out/knowing that Mike Parr was still filming at the Emmerdale studios in Leeds after Ross was supposed to be left for dead in the woods by Pete!

Maybe we should be thinking about how to solve who shot Robert in the same way = who isn't filming right now on the Emmerdale set and whose contract is due to expire?

We know from the This Morning show on Friday September 25th that the following actors got interviewed: Aaron/Robert/Chas/Andy/Paddy.

Lachlan didn't get interviewed. neither did Chrissie or Debbie. Are ITV protecting/gagging these characters from TV airtime?

Then, of course, we know from much previous painful experience that Emmerdale PC Plod soap police always get it wrong and are shown up as complete idiots after a while, so maybe we can all assume that when Chrissie, Andy and Lawrence get arrested that it isn't them!

Maybe Andy just goes away to cool off for afternoon/evening when Robert gets shot? (How could Andy phone Diane and Vic at the pub if he's hiding in a bush at the back of the pub?)

Would Aaron really fire a powerful gun at Robert when his mother was so close in the scene? Even if she wasn't shot, she would be there looking like a murder suspect.

So that leaves angry young guy and mother-loving Lachlan (aka another Norman Bates?) as the #1 fall guy from too much Call-of-Duty-style hitman role and gun practise?

Lachlan:
Has motive for killing Robert, believing Robert killed Katie, and knows that he, Lawrence and Chrissie want Robert out of their lives.
Already made a recce/partial attempt to shoot Robert in the village previously. Also known to have practised posing with the gun at Home Farm. Visited Belle and Kirin during the afternoon, his rucksack made a heavy thud as he put it on the table there. Seen walking from the village after the shooting, took object from left trouser pocket and threw it quickly into the meadow before Lawrence's car pulls up. Was shifty and reluctant to be at the hospital with police there. Also looked guilty at Home Farm later when Lawrence says he found the safe open and the gun missing.
Problems = how could he get a gun? (Home Farm safe left open by Chrissie/Robert? Knew combination anyway?) What item did he throw into the meadow after the shooting (the gun? the bracelet? If it was the gun, had he used it?) Would he strangely just steal Chrissie's bracelet (presumably valuable) from the safe for Belle and how would he get away with giving Belle this? Is Lachlan another teen gone beyond troubled?

Lachlan appeared on TV first in Emmerdale on 10th November 2014, so is due for contract expiry and would be an 'easy pick' for an Emmerdale character due to leave the show around right now.

Maybe Lachlan knew the Home Farm safe code (his mother is a wine-lover and maybe really careless at times, accidentally showing him the code at any time previously, even not securing the safe at times?). He wanted Belle to have Chrissie's expensive bracelet but Kirin was there and he didn't have any chance of giving her this. Maybe this is what he threw into the meadow after Robert got shot, or maybe it really was the gun he threw away there? Maybe he shot Robert, panicked, dropped the gun in the bushes and sneaked away while distractions were going on. Aaron later found the gun around the rear of the pub, thought Chas had shot Robert and thrown the gun into the bush. Aaron tried to dispose of the gun via the scrapyard waste (destined for a metal crusher?). 'Guilty' Aaron really wanted Robert dead at the time of the shooting, but after a week or so, he may regret this and his hate switches to love? Who knows what happens next but spoiler interviews suggest Robert and Aaron are involved with other again after this.

2) The Reveal

Andy and Chrissie get arrested on Tue/Wed 29-30 September. Lawrence "confesses" on Thu 1 October. A number of villagers know about the gun, including Rakesh, Ross, Chas, Chrissie, Lawrence, Lachlan, Aaron. Some of these even know that Lachlan was the one to find it and carry it around Emmerdale. If there are any police charges for Chrissie or Lawrence, will Rakesh be able to be a credible lawyer for defending either Chrissie or Lawrence whilst Rakesh and other villagers know that Lachlan could be the one to have used the gun to shoot Robert with?

Maybe the reveal will just let the viewers know who did shoot Robert but no-one in Emmerdale ever pays back as they keep it "in the family"?

During the conversation with Chas at the back of the pub, Robert looks to the right 5 times, and even turns towards the right just before Chas seems to walk away. Every time he looked to the right, he didn't seem at all concerned. Maybe he could see someone in the bushes and could even see who it was. If so, then for him to remain so calm, he must have known who it was and it was someone he would usually trust. Who would that be? Lachlan?

The reveal is meant to be the first-time ever method for a soap.

I was thinking of a sort-of series of scenes shown one after the other, with each scene showing the activities experienced by a different group of people. There was a 4-part series on ITV shown during 2012 about the sinking of the Titanic. Each part showed the lives and ends of a group of people as they experienced the sinking of the ship. For Emmerdale, maybe there could be something like one scene from people in the pub, one scene from people in the cafe, one scene from Chas, one scene from Aaron, one scene from Andy, one scene from Ross, a final one from Robert.

I think EastEnders might have done something like this in the Lucy storyline (I'm not knowledgeable on this though as I'm not an EastEnders viewer, so maybe this scene-series idea has been done before on a soap and the Emmerdale reveal is something else?).

Whatever the reveal is, it may come sooner than we think. Danny Miller suggested a short timescale. So 2-3 weeks?

Aaron tries to dispose of the gun on Wednesday Sept 30th. Hopefully, the storywriters will let us see where he gets this from on or before Wednesday. If he just finds it in the bushes at the back of the pub then we won't maybe learn anything about who the shooter was. The interesting find will be just what was the item that Lachlan threw into the field?. Was it the gun, the bracelet or something else?

Ok a tad unrelated, but I really like the fine light blue woollen jumper Chrissie was wearing in tonight's episode lol

Oh I notice things like that too.

Aaron had a nice army green sweatshirt on up to end of Wednesday last week. He ought to wear green more often, it's a great colour for him. On Thursday, he'd changed into a grey T-shirt and was wearing this with a black jacket on Friday night when Robert got shot. Grey isn't really his colour though, too light for his hair, I reckon. Ross, of course, looked good in his hitman black clothing with matching hair on Friday night, Andy was in black too and Lachlan had a purple jacket with black arms, dark trousers and purple beanie hat. Of these, Aaron was the worst-dressed for hiding in the bushes but then he is a scruffy scrapyard lad and maybe a bit challenged when it comes to the well-dressed hitman look. But which of these four would be most likely to hide in bushes anyway? Anyone who goes around wearing a purple hat and trying to carry off the latest paratrooper fashion is going to be at least a bit suspect for doing something like this? lol

[Telly Watcher]

I suppose Rakesh is another suspect now we know something is going on/due between him and Chrissie.

Rakesh:
Could have motive for wanting Robert dead so no evidence from him against Chrissie in her forthcoming car fire trial? Could want relationship with Chrissie or already have one in secret with her and want to get into the White family and business?
Rakesh was looking at Chrissie at Home Farm when she opened the safe to put the gun inside on Wednesday September 23rd, so maybe he knew the combination from then? Maybe took the gun on Friday or Chrissie gave him the gun on Friday afternoon when she "went for a walk" around the village (she told Chas about the Friday walk in the Monday 28th episode but obviously Chrissie did other things too and will claim she was with Eric during the time of the shooting).
Problems = Wasn't seen at the scene after the shooting. Any alibi? With Priya at time of shooting? Robert already out of Chrissie's life so legal case only possible motive for now?

[Telly Watcher]

Chrissie admitted to Chas on Monday, September 28th, that she "went for a walk" around the village on Friday, September 25th.

Did Chrissie do a "recce" around the village to decide where would be best to shoot Robert from at night-time near the pub where he is staying right now? Is the footprint that the police find afterwards and near the scene of Robert's shooting that from Chrissie's shoes?

The gun that Ross got bothers me too. Is it used and has it got any history? Maybe if the bullet lodged in Robert's body and can be given to police then forensics will link the grooves on the bullet to an earlier more serious crime (e.g. an unreported crime on a big profile target such as David Cameron?). Now that would be a really BIG BANG storyline for Kate Oates to go out on! Haha!

Come on, Kate Oates, I think we're ALL expecting REALLY BIG things from you for your "leaving do" on Emmerdale by January 2016, when you're due to leave us and to join the dark (Manchester) side!

Victoria and Diane are winding me right up at the moment the way they believe Robert over Andy and keep faffing about "poor Robert this" and "poor Robert that".

They seem to be the only people who genuinely think the sun shines out of Roberts backside. It's quite pathetic and painful to watch.

[Debzyg]

Also the female copper questioning everyone at the moment is really getting on my wick!!

Great police work again. "Oh we'll just arrest this person despite having no actual concrete evidence to make an arrest like the real police have to".

As per usual the ever patronising soap police go around arresting everyone in sight until the real killer either runs away or gets killed and never actually gets taken away to jail.

It's the one thing they never get right in soaps. Really shoddy, flimsy police work, arrests with no evidence. If I worked in the police force I'd be pretty peeved at how my profession was portrayed!

[Serena Williams]

It seems like the writers want the audience to think that Aaron shot Robert but why do I feel it is not him? There is a twist according to Danny Miller. Could paddy be the shooter?

Yeah they wouldn't give it away that quickly usually would they. Not unless it was a situation the audience was in on like the Cameron murder scenarios, where you're drawn in to keep you watching to see when they'll get found out. And they're making it look too obvious, which naturally makes you think it's not him. Unless it's a double bluff! Lol

Aaron could have stolen the gun thinking that his mom shot Robert and was trying to protect her. Would he have got the safe combination from Robert in the past for any reason? But then when would he have had time to steal it?

Although I still think it could be Lachlan. He could've easily found out the safe combination from his mom, Lawrence or Robert the amount of lurking about and watching people he does, the little weirdo lol

Emmerdale's Chrissie Sugden is arrested over Robert's shooting

By Daniel Kilkelly
Wednesday, Sep 30 2015, 00:00 BST

Emmerdale's Chrissie Sugden becomes the new prime suspect in Robert's shooting case tonight (September 30).

As Robert remains in a critical condition in hospital, Chrissie (Louise Marwood) informs her lawyer Rakesh Kotecha that she has an alibi as Eric Pollard saw her around the time of the shooting.

Chrissie and Rakesh (Pasha Bocarie) are hopeful that Eric will do the right thing by telling the police the truth, but he actually does the opposite by vengefully giving a false statement which puts her firmly in the frame.

Later, just as Chrissie is celebrating being in the clear, she gets a nasty shock as the no-nonsense detective who is leading the case arrives at the café to arrest her. Is Chrissie in big trouble?

Here are photos of the guns used at the woodland lodge (where Robert was going to kill Aaron), the gun Lachlan found and the gun Aaron had at home on 29/09/15.

Lachlan's gun after being in the stream

The woodland lodge gun is totally different from the Lachlan and Aaron guns, so Aaron's gun is definitely not the woodland lodge gun.

There are similarities between Lachlan's gun and Aaron's gun, so Aaron's gun seems to be Lachlan's gun after it has been cleaned/oiled.

Although Aaron has a gun, this doesn't prove that he used it to shoot Robert. Of course, this gun will now be covered with Aaron's fingerprints and DNA.

The big question is where did Aaron get Aaron's gun from?

From Home Farm? Given to him by Chrissie/Lawrence/Lachlan/Robert/someone else? Found in the bushes/around Emmerdale?

Hi, you're right, of course. The first post made wasn't meant to be in the other thread and there is no duplicate there now.

[Telly Watcher]

The shiny gun that Aaron had during the Tuesday September 29th episode really bothered me, so I did some checking of previous Emmerdale footage as I thought something might have been set up for us to see but scenes were over so quickly on TV that the details were probably passed over and a frame-by-frame check was needed.

Lachlan finds Ross' gun in a daysack in the stream in the Tuesday, September 22nd episode. In the Wednesday, September 23rd episode (Part 1), he's at the Emmerdale bus shelter where he takes the gun from his rucksack and puts it in his left trouser pocket (Lachlan is left-handed). As he leaves the bus shelter, Rakesh jogs into him from the left and knocks him over. The gun falls from his trouser pocket onto the road and Rakesh then sees it. Rakesh does nothing at the time but later tells Chrissie that Lachlan has a gun.

After being run into by Rakesh, Lachlan's gun falls out of Lachlan's pocket / Lachlan's gun

After Robert has been shot, Lachlan is shown (during the Friday, September 25th episode) to be walking out of the village (probably towards Home Farm which is some way outside the village and reached through country lanes). He reaches into his left trouser pocket, takes something out with his left hand, then throws the object into a field (or is this Aaron's scrapyard property?). He then seems to sniff his left hand (has strong gunpowder residue?) then seems to hear a car approaching, pulls down his jacket over his trouser pockets, then gets into Lawrence's car and is taken by Lawrence to the hospital where Robert has been taken (Hotton General?). Whilst at the hospital, Lachlan is terribly shifty and makes it clear that he doesn't want to be there.

We now know from a spoiler published in What's on TV (3-9 October edition) that Aaron is arrested by Emmerdale PC Plod soap police during the week 12-16th October following the revelation that Aaron seems to have been holding a gun in the background of a video made by Vic/Adam and which was uploaded onto the Internet and noticed by someone watching it. However, some of us know by much experience that Emmerdale PC Plod soap police always get it wrong, so Aaron's arrest is most likely to mean that Aaron wasn't the one who shot Robert!

So what could have happened?

1) Lachlan gets the gun from the Home Farm safe (maybe he knew the safe combination as Chrissie seems to be completely careless about keeping secrets and not being a responsible mother?). Lachlan hanged around the bushes near Robert's room in the pub, then shoots Robert, waits for things to go quiet, then walks towards Home Farm, throws the gun into the field on the way, then gets picked up by Lawrence in his car and taken (unwillingly) to the hospital where Robert has been taken. Aaron maybe finds the gun the next day/later as the "field" is really part of his scrapyard property, or maybe Aaron's gun is another from somewhere else?

2) Lachlan gets the gun from the Home Farm safe (maybe he knew the safe combination as Chrissie seems to be completely careless about keeping secrets and not being a responsible mother?). Lachlan hanged around the bushes near Robert's room in the pub, Lachlan shoots Robert, then Aaron runs into him (like Rakesh did on Wednesday September 22nd) so Lachlan drops the gun (carelessly, yet again, such a typical careless teenager!), then Aaron finds the gun, either then at the time or later when he checks the bushes? Aaron may at first have thought that Chas shot Robert and threw it away into the bushes where Aaron found it, so Aaron took it to protect his mother from gun evidence being available to any further police investigation. As of Tuesday, September 29th, Aaron knows that police forensics have cleared Chas from any chance of shooting Robert, so now Aaron has a gun which he needs to get rid of, either it's one he used to shoot Robert or one he found somewhere or was given through the scrapyard.

3) Aaron's shiny gun is similar to the one that Lachlan found, but is it shiny because it has been cleaned/oiled or is it a different gun altogether? Maybe it is the shooting weapon or maybe it is another that Aaron has found through scrapyard waste (Emmerdale with its 55 or so residents and about 20 houses is such a hotspot for Yorkshire crimes, of course, and attracts bad lads like iron to magnets it seems!). One thing is for sure, Aaron's gun is not the one that Robert had at the woodland lodge.

Aaron was wearing his army green sweatshirt last night on the Tuesday September 29th episode (not really the best dress when a local police shooting crime investigation is underway) when looking at his shiny weapon in his sitting room. A What's on TV spoiler (3-9 October edition) says that Aaron gets arrested during 12-16 October for being seen with this gun on a video shot by Vic/Adam. Just being in possession of a gun is a very serious criminal offence with a possible jail sentence of many years. Maybe Aaron soon disposes of the gun he has and later manages to convince the police that his gun which is seen on video was only a toy, we'll see?

I did post before that Emmerdale PC Plod soap police always get it wrong, so anyone they usually arrest won't be the one they want. It really looks like this is going to happen (yet again!) when Aaron is arrested in a while (12th-16th October). Just why do the Emmerdale storywriters have such a dim view of the police and just why are Emmerdale soap police so quick to arrest people when what they really do on many times is to take people in for questioning and then release them?

It just seems to me right now that Aaron is completely unsuitable as a possible suspect for shooting at Robert behind the pub.

1) Mother Chas was standing right next to Robert when Robert was shot. Just what kind of son would fire a powerful gangster-type weapon anywhere towards his own mother whom he loves dearly and by doing so also set her up as the #1 suspect for wanting to murder Robert?

2) Although Aaron hates Robert for the many dreadful things he's done to many people around Emmerdale, Robert has been second only to Chas recently as the love-of-his-life. Love and hate are very switchable emotions amongst people who really love each other, so why should Aaron be expected to not have times when he hates Robert (even though he will, almost certainly at least, still have the love emotion somewhere deep down)?

3) Although Aaron might hate Robert at times, it doesn't necessarily follow that Aaron hates Robert so much as to want him dead or to even kill Robert himself.

4) There have been a number of spoiler hints (from actor/producer interviews, etc) that Robron will restart in due course. I imagine that this can only happen if Aaron is eventually completely exonerated from actually hurting Robert and that the experience of Robert being so badly injured (nearly at death's door) from this shooting storyline and separated from Robert over this for a time will bring Aaron and Robert close together in a while.

5) As producer Kate Oates is due to leave Emmerdale in 2016, I suspect that a number of current storylines will have ended by the time that she leaves. Maybe the Aaron and Robert bad times are over by then?

The other thing is that a rule-of-thumb about murders (potential or actual) is that they are very usually committed by a family member or a close 'friend'.

So, who is my #1 suspect right now? Lachlan. He really does have all of the characteristics for a murderer here. He's an out-of-control teenager with very little life experience, a White family member, has a known tendency for anything wierd, has history for creeping around the village, has criminal record, a weak mother, etc. I really don't think his appearance on Emmerdale since 10 November 2014 has been very nice for anyone in Emmerdale. I really wonder where his family went wrong with him during his upbringing. I posted before that "Anyone who goes around wearing a purple hat and trying to carry off the latest paratrooper fashion is going to be at least a bit suspect for doing something like this?" (=shooting his step-father with a pistol as a silent assassin in the dark at the back of the Woolpack). I did post here on soapboards on 20th September that it would most likely be him. http://www.soapboards.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?137801-Emmerdale-Spoilers-28th-September-2nd-October-2015&p=831066#post831066

Only time will tell what the real outcome of the Robert shooting storyline will be.

Emmerdale's planning a special rewind episode to reveal who shot Robert Sugden

By Sophie Dainty
Wednesday, Sep 30 2015, 18:00 BST

Emmerdale will air a special flashback episode next month as viewers discover what happened on the night Robert Sugden was shot and who was responsible.

The must-see, hour-long episode will answer the question that has been keeping fans guessing for weeks, as well as revealing two other secrets that are set to change the village forever.

Emmerdale promo picture for rewind episode

Last week, viewers saw the tables turn for Robert when a mystery assailant shot him in the chest, leaving him fighting for his life.

Not only was Robert responsible for the death of his brother's wife Katie earlier this year, but he has made several enemies in recent months, leaving a number of characters in the frame.

While the main focus of the rewind episode will explore the crucial moments leading up to the shooting, two other secrets from that night will be revealed, setting the scene for an explosive winter.

One character that has been acting suspiciously since the night in question is Paddy Kirk. Viewers will have noticed that Paddy has been very cagey about his whereabouts since the incident, but did he shoot Robert or is he hiding another secret?

Robert collapses to the floor with a gunshot wound

Emmerdale's producer Kate Oates explained: "This won't be the first time Emmerdale has broken its 'house style' of storytelling; but it will be the first time we've told a story in a non-linear way.

"What makes this 'rewind' episode special is that we won't just learn who shot Robert, but two other big secrets that will propel the show into an exciting, emotional and dramatic winter."

The special flashback episode is due to air at the end of October to tie in with the show's 43rd anniversary.

To be fair to Emmerdale, they aren't keeping the storyline going for over a year just a few weeks until the reveal which is good

[Telly Watcher]

The Sun published today about the "unveil" of the Robert shooter.

The article included a photo, not of Robert, but of Lachlan!.

Is this a terrible teaser or simple newspaper writer mistake or is it a massive spoiler error released too soon by someone at The Sun knowing and releasing any embargoed Press Release stuff which we, as Joe Public, don't know about yet?

Emmerdale's Lawrence White has to face the music tonight (October 2) following his shock confession in Robert Sugden's shooting case.

As Lawrence (John Bowe) adjusts to life back in a prison cell, it's not long before his daughter Chrissie and fiancée Bernice Blackstock turn up at the jail to demand answers from him.

With Chrissie (Louise Marwood) adamant that her father is lying and Bernice unsure what to believe, Lawrence keeps things simple by insisting that his confession was totally genuine.

Deciding that she can't be part of this, Bernice (Samantha Giles) leaves Lawrence devastated by handing back her engagement ring and storming out. Once father and daughter are alone, what will Lawrence have to say to Chrissie?
